A known "pill popper" was legally allowed to possess a handgun in S.C.
http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/06/18/everything-known-about-charleston-church-shooting-suspect-dylann-roof.html
Which he then used to murder nine innocent people.
Of course this crime has everything to do with gun control: LE in South Carolina (and most NRA-bought-off states) is forbidden from thoroughly vetting prospective handgun owners.
The killer would never have been allowed to own his handgun in a state like NJ, a state which has actual sane gun laws: LE is logically required to properly vet prospective handgun owners: personal interviews, contacts with neighbors, employers, etc. to make absolutely certain that any ominous behavior that would slip by a simple felony background check doesn't go undiscovered. Any major red flags? Sorry, no gun, nutjob.
Lives saved, and responsible gun owners get to continue owning their firearms at the same time.

2. i wonder?
what this conservative obsession with the second amendment and wanting unfettered access to guns is really about?
makes me wonder if a majority of conservatives believe (or are in reality afraid) they would be excluded from gun ownership if we had sensible gun laws?
i am curious the ratio between progressives and conservatives insofar as having mental illness and criminal records is concerned?
from personal experience most progressives i have met seem to be educated down to earth open minded people who tolerate other belief systems where as most (i will admit there are a few exceptions to this) conservatives i have met seem to be bouncing off the walls paranoid, religious ideologues who believe they are at war with the progressives and anyone else who don't believe the same things they do.
i will comment i have a few conservative friends who while hardened in many of their beliefs are still open minded enough to alter their ideas somewhat about some of those beliefs mainly on the fiscal side of things (entitlements, single payer, minimum wage, etc), socially (marriage equality, abortion) they are still old school conservatives and don't appear to budge much on those topics.
just a thought.
Seriously? DU is well known as a haven for drug abusers and crazies. This has to be a noob mole.

From what I've read, his dad bought the pistol and gave it to him for his 21 birthday.

What do you want to bet that the obumbles justice department is gonna go after the Dad?

They might be justified in doing so this time. If the dad knew his son was a drug user/abuser then it was illegal, (I believe) for him to possess a gun.

Do I get "Yes they will" or "No they won't"?....the family farm on one and nothing on the other.

Obvious mole is obvious.

Also, if his felony drug arrest happened before his 21st birthday, the dad could be looking at 5 years or so.

Whereas many progressives are over-educated (since going to school means they don't have to *WORK*), all progressives are the most closed-minded and intolerant people on the planet.

Police: Dylann Roof arrested for trespassing, drug possession at Columbiana Centre
http://www.wistv.com/story/29353220/police-dylann-roof-arrested-for-trespassing-drug-possession-at-columbiana-centre
According to the report, Roof told the officer "his parents were pressuring him to get a job." The officer asked Roof is he had gotten any applications from the stores and he said he had not.
Roof, according to the officer, appeared nervous during their conversation. When asked whether or not he had anything illegal in his possession, Roof said "no."
The officer then searched Roof and found an unlabeled white bottle containing orange strips, which Roof identified as Listerine Strips. The officer, however, did not believe him and asked again. Roof said the strips were actually Suboxone, a schedule III narcotic for which the 20-year-old did not have a prescription.
According to the FDA, Suboxone contains the active ingredient, buprenorphine hydrochloride, which works to reduce the symptoms of opiate dependence.
Sounds like a DUmmie to me. :mental:

For accused killer Dylann Roof, a life that had quietly drifted off track
http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/accused-killer-in-sc-slayings-described-as-a-quiet-loner/2015/06/18/a4127390-15d0-11e5-89f3-61410da94eb1_story.html
In February, according to a police report, he raised suspicion by walking into stores wearing all black and asking workers “out of the ordinary questions.†The report said the questions included queries about how many people worked at the stores and when they left work.
In response to police questioning, Roof said his parents were pressuring him to get a job. But he hadn’t picked up any job applications, the report said.
The officer who questioned Roof then found strips of Suboxone, a drug for treating opiate addiction, in his jacket pocket. Roof was arrested and charged with felony drug possession and banned from the mall. The case is pending, according to court records.
Two months later, in April, Roof was arrested again, this time for trespassing in the mall’s parking lot, according to a police report. He was found guilty of that charge May 27 and fined $262.50, according to court records.
Dylann Roof's date birth is April 3, 1994.

That would explain the orange-jumpsuited mugshot the PD already had on file.

Shooting suspect in custody after Charleston church massacre
http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/18/us/charleston-south-carolina-shooting/index.html
He was armed with a gun when he was arrested, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the investigation. It's not clear if it's the same firearm used in the shooting.
It's uncertain who bought the gun Roof used.
A senior law enforcement source told CNN the suspect's father had recently bought him a .45-caliber gun for his 21st birthday in April.
But Roof's grandfather says it was just "birthday money" and that the family didn't know what Roof did with that money.
It is not known where the gun came from.

No paragraph involved. That was a single sentence. :rotf:

I blame gun free zones. There is a 98% correlation with mass shootings and gun free zones.
I know that is just logic and fact.
